STRONG women stand up for themselves, and they're smart enough to blame the person who is supposed to be blamed...not make vague, meaningless, prejudicial, stereotypical, unintelligent accusations against a large entity that can't possibly be responsible for the bad choices of a few of its members.
Agree.

I understand people go through hard things.

Discussion is about sharing of ideas and opinions on a particular topic. We all do that. And we all do in in individual ways. Do you dictate what is relevant to a discussion? I don't think so. What you feel is relevant, I may not. What I feel is relevant you may not.
fair enough, I was asked to respond. The bigger picture is about the abuse of women and what can the church do to help those women.

As the body of Christ we are to help those who cannot help themselves. To do that we must be whole.
How do you determine "whole"? Most people think they are probably. But I definitely agree we should be about helping people. Some people are hard to help and won't receive it. That's difficult.

How many lime green Volkswagon bugs have you seen in the last month? How many gray colored sedans?

No, no, NO, Scott! You have it backwards. THOSE are the women who have finally succeeded in teaching those jerks a thing or two. THEY have risen above the persecution to fulfill the roles God willed for them! The brow-beaten men are getting what they deserve, after centuries of oppressing their women. Any men who complain are whiny wimps who should sit down and shut up and submit to the women. After all, we are supposed to be "mutually submissive."

*gag*
